The partners throughout several partnership projects have developed a collection of high quality ICT applications that have showed their usefulness as a didactical resource to teach especially young workers from the building industry. The main aim of CPD is the development of joint projects within VET and the construction industry. Their relevant presence at both national and European level, makes all of them crucial organizations, not only to bring close “new” trainings to trainees, but also to spread multi-level their projects and results.
